Great suction power for such a small sized machine. Amazingly quiet.

Great price
I've always had long-lasting, high performance machines from Miele. In this case, I needed a vacuum cleaner for a room where I make mosaics. A stick vacuum would not suit the task of vacuuming glass fragments. The lightweight, well-priced, well-designed S1 is perfect for my needs.

Hard to move over carpet
I have 3 Miele vac cleaners (2 for work one for home) and this one is quite difficult to move. the suction to the carpet is so great that it requires significant effort to move despite what setting you're on.

At a glance
The Miele Guard S1 is a compact bagged barrel vacuum for hard floors, tiles and carpets, with pet-hair capability and 99.99% dust retention through its ComfortFit bag system and AirClean filter. It suits smaller homes, units and allergy-sensitive households wanting easy handling and adjustable suction. Its main limitation is that the compact design and 3.5L bag are better suited to routine cleaning than large-home deep cleans.

Things to consider
Its compact build and 3.5L bag make it easier to store and carry, but larger households may prefer a vacuum with a bigger capacity or a specialist deep-cleaning floorhead setup.
Pet hair performance score
8/10 - Well suited to homes with pets thanks to strong suction control, bagged dust containment and included tools, though it is not a specialist pet model.
Large home suitability
Moderate - the 10m operating radius helps across several rooms, but the compact format is better matched to smaller homes and units.
Carpet vs hard floor fit
Balanced multi-surface performance for hard floors, tiles and carpets, with adjustable suction to better match each surface.
Noise level rating
7/10 - At 76 dBA, it is reasonably controlled for a barrel vacuum but not especially quiet.
Portability rating
8/10 - The compact 6kg build and ergonomic handling make it easy to carry, store and use in smaller homes.
Key benefits
- Bagged design: Helps keep collected dust contained for cleaner disposal and less mess when changing bags.
- 3.5L bag capacity: Offers a practical size for routine whole-home cleaning without overly frequent bag changes in smaller households.
- 99.99% dust retention: Supports cleaner exhaust air for allergy-sensitive households.
- 4 selectable modes: Lets you adjust cleaning performance more easily for delicate rugs, hard floors or heavier debris.
- Electronic rotary suction control: Makes it simple to fine-tune suction power for different surfaces and cleaning tasks.
- 10m operating radius: Cleans multiple rooms from one power point, reducing the need to switch sockets.
- 7.5m cord: Gives you solid reach for room-to-room cleaning while keeping a compact barrel format.
- EasySlide telescopic tube: Adjusts height for different users and helps reach under furniture or into tighter spaces.
Q: Is this vacuum good for pet hair on carpet and hard floors?
A: Yes. The Miele Guard S1 is designed for hard floors, tiles, carpets and pet hair, with adjustable suction to suit different surfaces. It uses a universal floorhead, so it is better for everyday pet hair pickup than specialised grooming or heavy-duty pet cleaning.
Q: Will this suit a large house with lots of deep carpet?
A: No. This model is a better fit for smaller homes, units and mixed-floor spaces than large homes with lots of deep carpet. It can clean carpet, but its compact design and single main floorhead make it less specialised for bigger, more demanding layouts.
Q: Can it clean multiple rooms without changing power points?
A: Yes. The Miele Guard S1 has a 10m operating radius, so it can cover several rooms from one socket in many smaller homes. In a larger layout, or where power points are spread out, it may still need to be moved partway through cleaning.
Q: How often will the bag need changing in a small home?
A: The Miele Guard S1 uses a 3.5L dust bag, which gives more room than a compact stick vacuum dust bin. In a small home, that usually means fewer emptying stops during routine cleaning, though pets, carpet and heavier debris will fill it faster.
Q: Is the Miele Guard S1 quiet enough for unit living?
A: Miele Guard S1 operates at 76dBA, which is typical barrel vacuum noise rather than a near-silent clean. It should suit normal daytime use in a unit, but it is still a full-power vacuum and may be too loud for late-night cleaning.
Q: Does it come with separate tools for furniture, corners and dusting?
A: Yes. The box includes a dusting brush, upholstery nozzle, crevice nozzle and VarioClip, along with the main floorhead. That gives you dedicated tools for sofas, edges and tighter spaces, not just a single all-purpose head.
